Freaks Of Authors.

William Hazlitt lived all his life
from hand to mouth, and would
never write an article or do any
literary work while he had q guinea
iii his purse. When absolutely re-
duced to nothing he would 90 off
to some solitude, seize a pen, and
produce one of his brilliant arti-
cles. He would live in idleness
until the price of the article was
spent, and then produce another.
Byron, who was born to debts
and an encountered estate, had "a
lords scorn of earning money.
There were nine executions in his
house during his brief married life
and he Indignantly sent back II
check to his publishers, at the
very time when the officers were
presiding over his establishment.
He is said to have been mean, too,
in money matters, and to have al
lowed Shelly, who was very gen
erOus, to pay all the expenses of
several undertakings in which
they shared, and where Byron
was at least as well able to pay as
his friend.
Carlyle was too canny Scotch
man not to know how to take care
of himself, although he was miser.
ably poor in his early days. He
carried the economies of his youth
beyond the time they were neces-
sary, and made it harder for Mrs.
Carlyle than was need of all the
way through, much to his regret
after her death.

Manual Training Classes.

1t has been noticed in the pub
manual training classes of the
Boston schools that the children
of the wealthy and those of the
poor derive the most benefit from
the instruction, and perform their
task IN carpentry with the greatest
eagerness. The children of the
rich are pleased with the novelty
of the tools, and those of the poor
are excited to ambition for the
sake of future gain; and come by
inheritance to a certain aptness in
tools. The children Of the middle
class seem to take less interest in
the subject of manual training.

Peculiarities OF Steel.

Steel is queer stuff. That a
metal should be i'm such common
use in which are to be found so
many valuable characteristics in
it's normal condition, and which
can be changed by heat or cold to
appear like a new something, en-
tirely different in character, and
still it's value be enhanched in
calculably by the change, seems
marvellous. That the hard pieces
of steel, which resist all efforts to
cut them with chisel or file, may
be sOftened by simple heating and
cooling, so that they may be cut
and worked and engraved into all
the thousands of shapes of utility
and beauty in which steel may be
found in toolrooms and vaults of
our busy manufactures, and that,
when the work is all put on the
same pieces, may be reheated and
cooled, and made thereby so hard
that no tool which cut them before
will mark them, made so hard even
as to cut glass like diamonds, is
wonderful.

Satan and the SaIvationists.
Portland Oregonian.

Portland Oregonlan.
At the Turn Verein masquerade
recently, the groupe representing
the Salvation army, because they
had the best chance to "perform,"
attracted chiefest attention. Their
antics were no more ridiculous.
Shortly before the hour of un
masking the 'army" marched to
the center of the pavilion and
formed a circle. Among the mask
ers was tall, atheletic young
man. who persOnated Satan. He
burst into the ring and tried to
break it up. The "army" rose as
man, thrOttled Satan, threw him
down and wiped the floor with
him.

She Would Not Serve.

The latest small but gusty breeze
in altitudinOus society was raised
over a question of dress. 1t is q
custom of the semi-public balls
those to which entrance is re-
stricted to a carefully chosen COM,
pany-tO impart an aspect of Sc.
clusiOn by having three women
pose as hOstesses. This was done
on the occasion in question. A
trio of Fifth avenues prOudest and
most respected wives consented
to act. They were to stand in an
ante-rOOm of the large hall, on a
low platform, and bow greetingly
to the arriving guests. That is
how the thing was done. The
first of these matrons to report for
duty was clad in sumptuOus brown
brOcade. The second wore pink
satin. SO far so good. But the
third came in crimson-a color
that effectually killed the delicate
pink of her proposed companion.
The latter angrily declared that
she would not serve. She was
sure that the other had known all
about the color question, for it
had been discussed, and devilish
malignity alone had impelled her
to put on the destructive red. The
difficulty could not be composed,
and so two matrOns received the
company, while the third mingled
with the throng, trying to hide her
anger under a placid surface.

tribution throughout the year has been un-
usually well adapted to the growth of the
crop. In the labour market there has not
only been q demand for the services OF all our
native labourers VIII were willing to work, but
it has also been found possible to introduce
and find employment for several hundreds of
Iaborers from arbadoes and other islands.
This increase o. he lakour force has not been
the only improveboo~ made during the year.
The great success which had attended the es-
ta%blishment of the vacuum pan works at Beth
lehem had demonstrated the possibility OF
using such works with profit on a compare
lively small scale, and the year just closed
has seen this important example followed on
two other properties.
Looking forward into the year now opening
we must perceive that the advantages enjoyed
by the island during the past year and the
improvements to which we have referred go
far towards securing for US a prosperous peri
cd. It is, of course, impossible to say what
may be the fluctuations of the sugar market,
but there is at least one indication, namely the
considerable reduction in the stock Of sugar
in the principal British ports, which en-
courages the hope that better times
for us in this respect are approaching.
However that may be, the immense crop now
on the land is an assurance that we shall be
able to pay our way, and perhaps even to
have a margin over when that is done. We
can scarcely call this a prosperous state of
things for the owners of properties, but for
the far larger number who depend directly or
indirectly on the working of those properties
we may safely predict a prosperous year.
Of happiness indeed nothing can be pre-
dicted since it is in the main an Individual
matter depending upon numberless other cir
cumstances over and beyond the general con-
dition of the community. Such a considera-
ton need not however debar US from joining
ours to the countless good wishes which will
be expressed to-day wherever friends and
neighbours meet, and we will therefore close
these few remarks by wishing one and all of
our readers A HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Telegraphic communication with London IS

The Marquis Of Salisbury has informed the
Cabinet that the Marquis of Harrington has
refused to join him. He will renew his
request, but will not negotiate with Lord
Randolph Churchill. If Lord Harrington
should again refuse he will dissolve Parlia-
ment, and appeal to the country on the
Unionist platform, taking as additional pianks
the new rules of procedure and the precedence
OF English legislation over the Irish measure,
and the adoption of a vigorous foreign
policy.
1t is announced that Sir John Pope
Hennessy, the Governor of the Mauritius

Mr.. Morley has invited Mr.. Chamberlain
to define the limitation of the disagreement

It is stated that Mr.. Parnell's extreme

To-day we enter upon another year, and
thus have come to q point OF time when
it is appropriate to look both backwards and
forwards. The year that has just closed did
not open with any bright prospects for West
Indian communities, and, considering this
and the fact that no striking change for the
better has taken place during the year, it is
surprising to find that the sugar growing
colonies not only continue to exist as such,
but are in many cases showing a Vitality
which could scarcely have been expected.
AS an illustration of this it is perhaps hardly
fair to name the great colony Of British Guia-
ma, which for so many years has taken the
lead in the wise introduction of improved ma
chinery and processes and which has spent
such vast sums in supplying its planters with
labour from abroad. Yet we cannot refer to
the report on the financial position of that
important colony as given IN the article re-
printed from the ArgOSy in last Wednesdays
Avis without feeling that it's cheerful tone
might, in a less decided manner, be echoed by
many of the smaller colonies. If these latter
are not able to show so good a result of their
years work, it is mainly because they have
not hitherto shown a like energy in keeping
pace with the new methods of recent times,
WI ich, in the fierce struggle for existence, are
81 Wy but surely crushing out the old.
we now confine our view to the limited
ar of our own little island, we shall find,
thu although our financial state must be con-
side ID unsatisfactory, yet the position of the
conn nifty as a whole has been left far better
at tho lose of 1886 than we could have hoped
for at its beginning. The weather, upon which,
in an agricultural community, 50 much de-
ponds, has been more favorable than for the
past quarter of a century. Not only has there
